This article explores the integration of the Gemini Command-Line Interface (CLI) with Google Sheets using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It demonstrates how to leverage the open-source projects MCPApp and ToolsForMCPServer to create a bridge between the Gemini CLI and Google Workspace. This enables users to perform powerful data automation tasks, such as creating, reading, and modifying tables in Google Sheets directly from the command line, using natural language prompts. The article provides practical examples and sample prompts to illustrate the seamless workflow and potential for building sophisticated, AI-powered applications within the Google Cloud ecosystem.

This report introduces ToolsForMCPServer, an enhanced Google Apps Script library that expands the capabilities of Gemini CLI. It showcases new tools that streamline complex workflows, with a special emphasis on facilitating seamless file content transfer and management between a user's local environment and Google Drive.
This report details two methods for processing files using the Gemini CLI and a Google Apps Script MCP server: direct Base64 encoding and indirect transfer via the Google Drive API using ggsrun. The direct method proved ineffective due to token limits. The recommended approach, leveraging ggsrun, allows for efficient, scalable file transfers by using file IDs instead of embedding content within the prompt, enabling advanced automation capabilities.
The Gemini CLI provides a powerful command-line interface for interacting with Google's Gemini models. By leveraging the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the CLI can be extended with custom tools. This report explores the integration of the Gemini CLI with an MCP server built using Google Apps Script Web Apps. We demonstrate how this combination simplifies authorization for Google Workspace APIs (Gmail, Drive, Calendar, etc.), allowing Gemini to execute complex, multi-step tasks directly within the Google ecosystem. We provide setup instructions and several practical examples showcasing how this integration unlocks significant potential for automation and productivity enhancement.
The Gemini CLI can be integrated with Google Workspace via Google Apps Script to securely access personal data, enabling powerful automations like email summaries and calendar management.
The recently released Gemini CLI is a powerful command-line interface for interacting with Google's Gemini models and cloud resources. Ref While powerful on its own, its utility can be significantly enhanced by connecting it to a user's personal Google resources, such as Google Sheets, Docs, Slides, Gmail, and Calendar.
The Gemini API recently introduced the URL context tool, a feature designed to allow the model to directly fetch and utilize content from specified URLs to ground its responses. Ref
This report provides a practical demonstration of this tool's capabilities. We will investigate its impact on two critical aspects of AI model interaction: the accuracy of the generated response and the total token consumption, which directly affects API costs.
This article announces that the Gemini API's Python client library now supports "growing image" generation, a feature previously unavailable. Sample scripts for Python and Node.js are provided to demonstrate this new capability.
